why did Ben order a deep v Cougar, when he was making Apaches? I know he ordered a 48 foot catamaran from Cougar that was Erics Reality/Gentry

I don't think that is correct. The Ciasulli/ Maxon boat was built a few years before Ben went away.

Why did Ben order a Cougar when he was building 47 foot Apaches?
